Typify allows you to test your typing speed. The results are expressed in terms of words per minute (WPM).
The faster you can type, the faster you will be able to communicate with others. This is especially true if you are a programmer. You can save a ton of time on any kind of work that requires typing. At first, you will save a couple of extra minutes that you won’t really notice. Over time the minutes will turn into hours of saved time, which you can spend on other activities.
Typify is written with React and Material UI. You can find the live demo powered by GitHub Pages here.
In this type of test, your typing skills are expressed in words per minute, hence the name. The more you practice, the faster you type, the higher the WPM score will be.
To create a production build, change directory to the root of the source code. Run the following command.
yarn build
The following output was generated on my machine. The output may vary a little, on your machine depending on your configuration.
yarn run v1.15.2
$ react-scripts build

The project was built assuming it is hosted at the server root.
You can control this with the homepage field in your package.json.
For example, add this to build it for GitHub Pages:
"homepage" : "http://myname.github.io/myapp",
The build folder is ready to be deployed.
You may serve it with a static server:
serve -s build
